just lookin' for some constructive criticism -vid-
My buddy and I have been trying to hit the lot every weekend and work on holding the front wheel up and slowing them down as best we can. It's been a tough couple of weeks, but we seem to be making some slight progress.. Just wanted to post up a couple vids and get some tips to work with for next session!

any tips or advice is appreciated.
i know we don't have gear.. we can't afford it for right now, but we're goin' pretty easy out there, not doing anything crazy

Guy on the silver/black bike: Straighten left leg a little. Stop chopping at throttle. Clutch it and blip the throttle once and hold and apply brakes when necessary. It looks like your throttle and brakes are fighting each other. the smoother the throttle the less braking you'll be needing.
Guy on the silver/red bike: clutch up faster so that u don't accelerate.
both of you: turn up your idle if you have not already doing that.
Nice practice spot.

Awesome, thanks guys, some sick advice for next time.
So am I to understand, you're constantly giving it gas? you hold the throttle at a certain point, and just feather the brake? I thought you feathered the gas and brake together, I feel like if i give it constant gas i'll loop, regardless of my braking.
we're both runnin' -1+10 set ups with 10-14psi on the rear tire, and have idle at around 3000
Thanks again guys, this will give us somethin to work with for next time.

let me rephrase this. Clutch it like you are already doing coz you're doing good there. Easeoff the throttle a little as it is coming up to bp. Then, Give it a little gas and start tapping the brake while holding the throttle steady.everyone learns differently so I would try it and maybe add your own twist to it.

Thanks for everyone's help. Have been applying these tips and more from stuntride and we're progressing.. Although slowly, but we're progressing, and it's been tons of fun.
